The seller who had the money taken from his bank account confirmed that

the items. " and further that " The buyer 'allegedly' used a bad or forged
checking account to pay me with PP's electronic check service. "

I am not understanding what you think is wrong here. The buyer was a fraud - he
used a stolen card or something right? So what makes you think even for a second
the seller would be able to keep the stolen money that he was paid with? Read
this thread, you will see many people telling you that this is what happens.
This is *not* paypals fault - not in *any* way. So why the attack on paypal? You
*should* be attacking the 'buyer' here - HE is the theif, HE is the one that did
something wrong, not paypal.

I have changed my store policy to PayPal by balance transfer unless the
buyer is well established, but now it seems even that too is insufficient.

Hey, nice over-reaction there! You are missing the point of this thread 100% -
but it is your right to make decisions based on something other than the truth.


Am I the only one alarmed by this or that this is new to?

I think you are the only one still missing the point of what happened here.

But hey, I tried... what more can I do?

I think originally they stated the shipment was too a 'confirmed address' I think, which means that in theory PayPal did the funky confirmation that you get the bill for a credit card, which kinda defeats most easy fraud, or am I mistaken? (21 years ago, 4-Jun-03, to lugnet.market.services)
